Here’s a Private Seller Ad from 10/70 w/ the 52 # noted, hope this Drafted lad made it home.
I had the Ad at hand as I was going to post it over in the current NY thread, anyone know which car this ZL1 likely was?

21 could have been the running count at that time period in 69.

Umm, that ROGER DEAN add with the DARK 1969 ZL1 Vette with auto?????

In the corvette ZL1 thread I think it was Larry Cain years ago mentioned seeing a BLUE 1969 ZL1 vette.

So this would add/verify that there was more then the 2/3 Zl1 vettes. They known Yellow and White, plus the orange, NOW A BLUE.
